In Morocco we have that kind of belts, called mdama 😊 mostly used for big events but guess you can wear them for everyday outfits too if the look is suitable 😊
They would be a nice way to elevate a casual outfit into something more elegant.. I already know the ones y'all wear are stunningly beautiful.. I want to look them up, but I have a feeling that I won't be able to purchase one and that would be heartbreaking after seeing how beautiful they are . ❤❤
@@reneecaballero9624 you may want to go to an Arab/Moroccan wedding dress shop, idk where you live but if that's an option they might have some to sell ☺️
Edwardian dresses are just so beautiful. I'm a Regency girl, myself, but the details and craftsmanship on something like what you're wearing is breathtaking. Edit: and yes...lets bring back adjustable metal belts, it's such a cool concept. I'm really surprised, they're not more of a thing nowadays, what with the vast variety of sizes we have to accommodate now.
Honestly most women who would need to buy more links would complain or not buy it just based on that. I don't actually think that's the best answer for inclusivity, probably just offering multiple sizes like we do now is better
@WitchKing-Of-Angmar not true, women who could afford high quality garments were frequently quite well fed individuals. The obesity rate was lower (and starvation rate up) but the ruling class have been indulgent for as long as time 🤯
My mother has one similar to this made of brass with ornamental head. It has hook on both the head and the tail to be clipped onto any length to fit the wearer's waist. It's a vintage style belt popular for using with traditional and ceremonial costume, don't see people using it with modern clothes.
i wish people made belts likethis now cus IT'S SO DANG CLASSY the size change and the subtle corset esc shape at the front idk how to explain and the beautiful metal
@@youngspaghettii I feel like they meant you wouldn't have to buy a whole new one every time you gained or lost a size and be limited to 3 or 4 holes, just get more links which would be nice. But yeah to be considered size inclusive now you have to have up to like 4 or 5XL so yeah that would be a lot of links to include with every purchase lol
I make metal shiny things, if you want one I'm happy to make it for you... Each link would start at $300 USD, the larger links $500 and focal plaque closer to $1200.. how many will you need?
My mom used to have a few metallic fashion belts from the 80s and I was always so super fascinated by them. When I would play dress-up with her clothes, I almost always put one on that looked like a bunch of ornamental, unmonitozed coins. She has the most amazing fashion sense.
I was going to say I didn't think it was that long ago that you could find metal beats. Of course at one point, they were parts of soda cans joined by crochet...,lol.
@@Traci_Websinger oh I remember that. Wow awhile back now, I made a mermaid tail by knitting over a thousand metallic scales together with cotton yarn. It was a massive drowning hazard, and if a single scale got scratched it would absolutely rust, but technically it was water… able? lol. I always wanted to make an other one but couldn't afford the scales for a round two. So I was thinking while reading your comment, maybe I'll just collect a bunch of pop can tabs and make it that way lol.
@paranoiarpincess I still have a couple of silver "chain" belts from the 80s or early 90s. In one, the links are the outlines of different shapes, and you can hook it anywhere along the chain. One size fits all!
It looks like the north African traditional belt ... usually in gold ( used to be made of real gold) and it's worn with lots of different traditional clothing like Fergani , Naili ,caftan and many others and it usually contains different gems.
Moroccan belt not North African 😂 funny how anything Moroccan you want to call it North African and what’s Tunisian or Algerian is just Tunisian or Algerian 💀🤡 they’re not such thing as the Moroccan belt in Algerian and Tunisian traditional outfits.
We have that kind of belts in Morocco in different shapes and even colors in need... they're called mdama and we usually wear them in special occasions and big events with our traditional dresses( caftan or takchita)...this is the first time i see it on a dress and I'm surprised of how good it actually looks ❤
In high school in the 80s I had quite the collection of metal belts and some made with chains. Completely different look but that belt is beautiful 😍❤️ as well as yourself! 🙏❤️☺️
That is a really beautiful belt. I can't believe how old it is. That really amazes me. I am so fascinated with super old clothes and accessories like this because they really are beautiful but mostly because they're withstood the test of time. The girl, ladies, and women from these times dressed so elegantly. I love really old clothes. ❤
I absolutely adore older types of belts like these, they are unique and durable and immediately make the outfit look complete. I wish they would make a comeback into everyday use. 😊
Thank you for this video. Sansa is ny favorite. As a kid, I loved and still love embroidery, sewing, and stereotypical feminine hobbies. I was always embarrassed by it and felt like I had ro hide it.
It’s beautiful! What a special piece. Your knowledge about the pieces makes them so special. I often wonder how many amazing things we pass up on a daily basis never knowing their history or back story that might make them more meaningful, especially as I’m getting older and coming across some writings from family members who have passed about certain family heirlooms that have been passed down that we never knew the history of. I discovered a chair my brother has that he got from my grandma belonged to my great grandmother and my great grandfather spent his last few weeks in that chair and oddly enough he actually passed in the chair. No one in my living family knew this history of the chair until I came across this old writing from my great grandmother in my basement (I bought my grandmother’s house and many of her belongings were still in it, I began going through them with her when she was still alive but she passed in 2020 and we hadn’t gotten quite through everything yet).
i love the style of the north american covers because they take themselves seriously while also conveying a fantastical element. i feel like the covers which use a photo might imply to the reader that they're supposed to believe that actual cats are supposed to be doing all the things in the books which isn't really the case. i think the original north american covers are soo successful it's kind of amazing to see them side by side with less successful covers (as well as covers which totally understood the assignment like japan, korea, taiwan, and some of the german ones).
The way you styled the dress with the belt reminds me of how Queen Amalia of Greece used to style her dresses. She wasn't of Greek descendance but loved the country to her core and embraced pieces of the traditional style with hers.

I had one of these belts when I was a kid It belonged to my great-aunt She probably got it as a hand me down in like the 1920s when she was a teenager. Loved that belt. Mine eventually became worn out the hinges just couldn't handle it anymore. I still have bits of it in my memories box.
We still use these in morocco. The wealthy people own them in real gold. Typically worn during weddings and big celebrations. The bride always wears different gold belts
As a 42 year old hetero man who works in construction... I gotta say: that is an amazing belt, i absolutely love it. Keep doin you! Love your content 🙂
They're so chic! I've really loved certain pieces of outfits. I didn't think I'd be so captured by this type of belt though. It's really cool 🫶 I've also seen similar waist pieces from the 80's too. Although can't remember what movies...
It does make a very simple dress like the one you’re wearing look absolutely phenomenal those women they certainly knew how to dress much better than we do I think
I wish more was made like this today, can adjust to any size and survive over a century
